Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’, often nicknamed the “Curly Locks Cactus” or simply “Curly Epiphyllum,” is a bizarre and beautiful cultivar of a jungle cactus native to the rainforests of Guatemala and parts of Central America. In the wild, the species (Epiphyllum guatemalense) grows as an epiphyte—anchoring itself to trees in humid, shaded environments where it absorbs moisture and nutrients from the air and rain.

Description

The ‘Monstrose’ variety is a cultivated mutation prized for its fantastically twisted and contorted stems. Instead of the flat, strap-like stems typical of most Epiphyllums, this form sports irregular, curled, ribbon-like growth that gives the plant a wild, untamed appearance. It’s a conversation piece in any collection, often grown in hanging baskets where its spiraled stems can cascade downward like abstract green ribbons. While its unique foliage is the star of the show, it may occasionally produce large, white, night-blooming flowers in the right conditions, though flowering is rare in this cultivar.

Care Tips

As a tropical epiphyte, Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’ prefers filtered light—bright but indirect. It will scorch in direct sun, especially during the hottest parts of the day, but too little light will slow growth. Morning sun or dappled shade is ideal.

Use a very well-draining potting mix—an orchid or cactus mix with added perlite or bark chips works well. Water thoroughly when the top few centimeters of soil feel dry, and reduce watering in winter. Avoid letting it sit in soggy soil, as this can cause root rot.

It thrives in warm, humid conditions but is surprisingly tolerant of indoor dryness if not overwatered. Fertilize lightly during spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertilizer. Prune unruly or overly long stems to maintain shape or encourage branching.

With the right care, Epiphyllum guatemalense ‘Monstrose’ is an easygoing, eye-catching plant perfect for tropical-style gardens, shaded patios, or as an indoor hanging feature. Its eccentric growth habit adds texture and a touch of whimsy wherever it grows.

CULTIVATION TIPS

We recommend purchasing 2 or 3 cuttings when planting up a pot as it will ensure the development of a robust and aesthetic plant.

Epiphyllum do best in partial shade in a fertile soil mix. Keep reasonable moist throughout the year, a little less so in winter. They enjoy humidity and so benefit from spraying.

The item arrived safely however the box had slight creases and we think the item was supposed to come with backing piece for displaying. Other than that the puzzle is really nice.

As an Amazon Vine member, I personally select products to review. I tend to choose items that align with my interests and needs, which often leads to positive 4- and 5-star ratings. However, if a product does not meet my expectations, or it is not a good value, I will always provide an honest and transparent assessment of its performance. EVERYTHING starts at a 5, and goes from there. I thoroughly read the descriptions and if I don't like the description, I don't order the item. If the product shows up as advertised they get a 5. If there are unadvertised flaws, or if the information or photos are misleading, it is noted and stars removed accordingly. All opinions expressed in my reviews are my own, and on occasion, I may include feedback from my family or friends to offer a more comprehensive perspective.

Cheap broken box and no bag, allow pieces to fall out and are now missing….
Color: Fifa Mascot 2, Size: 26PCS, Color: Fifa Mascot 2, Size: 26PCS
Tiny little puzzle with no picture and missing pieces…. What you should receive is a very small box, a little larger than a lighter or the size of a key fob. The box is very light weight and flimsy. Mine arrived crushed on the bottom corner and ripped. This is similar to a candy box. Same type and weight. The pieces are not in a bag at all so when my box arrived in the condition it was in, and nothing sealed, of course pieces are missing. There are supposed to be to be 26 and I don’t have but half. They all fell out of the box like candy falls out of a broken box. The puzzle itself is done by laser and the pieces I do have fit together well but, the color is off. I believe they use a stain and the ink has spread into the other pieces next to them. The color is deep and intense and most is accurately done but some pieces have multiple colors that are not in the right place. Some pieces I can’t tell which side is the front and which side is the back. The pieces are also so small, with so much information crammed on, I can’t make it out as I work on it or once it’s completed the best I can with only part of the pieces. I am disappointed with the whole thing and can only say the laser cutting was done well. Other than that, I wouldn’t order again, especially for a souvenir.
